NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) Cam Newton threw passes in a 7-on-7 drill, doing more against the Tennessee Titans than the Carolina quarterback did in the first joint practice between the teams.

Then Newton returned to his cheerleader role Thursday, and he had a lot of company.

Tight end Greg Olsen got the session off as a veteran along with running back Jonathan Stewart and center Ryan Kalil. For those Panthers who did participate, Panthers coach Ron Rivera was not happy with their performance.
